I had the pleasure of shooting with Shawn for the first time at Shadow Studios in Gloucester, we had been in discussions for months and I was really happy we finally got to arrange a date.

Pre-shoot planning was great and on the day Shawn arranged transport for us including a taxi to the studio and lunch. This, together with an absolutely brilliant shoot and Shawn’s lovely company made the day totally enjoyable for me.

We covered a range of looks throughout the day, from beauty portraiture to fashion and boudoir. Shawn has a great eye for fashion and provided some beautiful accessories that worked a treat with the outfits I had prepared. I thoroughly enjoyed working with him, he was patient, a great laugh and provided great direction throughout the shoot. I was very glad to see he was delighted with the images straight from the camera, and I think we created some fabulous images together.

Shawn is of course highly recommended to all creatives.

Thank you for a brilliant day Shawn, and I look forward to he next time we get to work together.

Shawn was my photographer for fitness fashion show. He was on time and fully prepared. Very professional and friendly. He took a lot of amazing photos and back of camera looked phenomenal, so much that the fashion show designer wants to use his photos as well as the other two photographers they had on the night.

It is always pleasure to work with Shawn. Highly recommended

Shawn is a pure delight.

He booked a duo shoot with myself and LaylaLee at Shadow studios and I thoroughly enjoyed myself.

He spoilt us with food and drink which we ended up eating most of it on the train home ;)

Shawn arrived prepared with images of inspiration, I feel we created them very well.

He allowed us to also view the images as we go and I loved what I have seen so far.

Highly recommend and hope to shoot with him again sometime.

f/8 Studio

Shawn visited our studio for a duo model day with Scarlett Blaze and Layla Lee. Shawn is laid back, professional and has a great sense of humour.

He is very approachable, polite and a true gent.

We look forward to welcoming him back to the studio next month and wouldn’t hesitate to highly recommend him to anyone wishing to host or work with him.

Shawn is a darling!

I didn't get to shoot with him long, as it was a massive group shoot with the theme of "Candy", but the shots we got together are fab. He was super easy to talk to and work with.

A fabulous tog to work with. :)

Had a fantastic shoot with Shawn. He came to the location full of ideas of where he wanted to shoot and directed very well as well as being open and receptive to my suggestions.

He was very easy going and this allowed for a relaxing shoot. Was a genuine pleasure to shoot with him and I recommend him to any model from novice to high professional .

Looking forward to our next shoot .

Shawn worked with myself and Angel on our Bristol tour. From the start Shawn's lovely personality and great sense of humour made the shoot easy and enjoyable, and 3 hours literally flew by! We shot a huge range of styles using the great props Shawn brought along - should also mention this included coconut oil which made for a beautiful face mask afterwards too Haha! Shawn also bought some gels which really changed the atmosphere and mood of the scene, so hopefully there'll be a great variety in There! Shawn is both clear and precise in his direction whilst welcoming model input and I saw some really beautiful shots on the back of the camera. Thanks for a great afternoon and hope to work together again in the future

Highly recommended

Shawn is a true gent with a quirky nature, such a pleasure to work with. His photography in our opinion is excellent. His shoot at south house produced some excellent shots.

Ivy Lee

I had an awesome shoot with Shawn at Rainbow Studio. He is sooo much fun to work with and always has different/creative ideas. I really appreciated having him travel all the way from Bristol to Manchester to shoot with me. He also brought me lunch which was delicious. Shawn is a fantastic photographer and is sure of what he wants, he will direct you int the poses he is looking for but also allows you to pose freely. Can't wait until the next shoot, Thank you Shawn :D

I had an amazing location shoot with Shawn in Clifton, using my flat as a base to get changed and to drink coffee and eat lunch. We walked around Clifton and found some nice spots which where a little more out of the way. Shawn gave me positive feedback for the outfits that I had chosen. I loved the shoot because we rarely shoot out on location. Shawn is so down to earth and fun to work with. I highly recommend :) Thank you Shawn!!

Shawn attended my group night at Matchbox studio, as usual Shawn was a gentleman. Shawn Had his own input on the shoot, changing the lighting so it suited him rather than sticking with the group :)

Looking forward to out shoot in June

Thanks again Shawn

I had my first shoot with Shawn today and it was one of the most efficient and fun shoots i've had yet!

Shawn has a wonderfully warming personality and a great sense of humor! We started off out in my local grounds and then headed back to mine when the heavens opened! Now my house is rather small but Shawn managed to make the absolute best of the available space and the outcome was fantastic! We are thrilled with the images and are hoping to work together again soon!

I cannot recomment Shawn enough so if you get the chance be sure to book him!

Thank you for a lovely day! I can't wait to see the images and work with you again..

What can one even say or where does one start with Shawn :)

Shawn is a very likable guy, full of fantastic stories and facts and never a bore to work with!!

He also comes prepared with creative ideas and tonnes of accessories and garments to work with. He even went as far as dressing me up in a bin liner and managed to pull it off, he must be an alright photographer hahha!! ;)

Couldn't be more at ease with shawn, such a welcoming character!

Highly recommended to all :)
